Backyard Patio and Stone Wall in Ipswich

Blog Service Categories:

Blog Service Tags:

This Ipswich family had an open backyard that was sloped away from the house and difficult to have a table set on the lawn. Artistic Landscapes LLC designed and built them a patio with a sitting wall. We built the natural stone wall to alleviate the slope from the yard and to provide additional seating. In our goal to be consistent, we capped the wall and built steps to the patio with gray granite. The main section of the patio includes all three sizes of Techo-Bloc's Everest pavers while the accent around the perimeter was built with three rows of Unilock's Copthorne pavers. The base beneath the patio and natural stone wall is supported with 20 tons of open graded stone.

The step area was enhanced with the tiered wall adjacent to the steps. The goal of tiering the stonework was to provide subtle definition of where the entrance is to the patio and to provide a greater sense of depth when looking at the patio from inside the house.

As part of the design process, we took into account the hill/slope and decided that building a wall and setting the patio in the lower section of the yard would provide this family with the most flexibility. The lawn area between the house and the patio is fairly flat so they can use this area for almost anything including a swingset.

Artistic Landscapes LLC is ready to help you start planning your landscaping updates or transformation. We recommend calling or emailing us months before you want the finished project as we are often scheduling 3 - 4 months out. Please call (978) 948-2900 or email us at Tony@Artistic-Landscapes.com to get the planning phase started. We are able to design your yard even if there is snow and ice on the ground but we do not have much time to work on designs in April & May as we are working on the projects that we designed over the winter.

I hired Artistic Landscapes for a brick and cobble walkway with granite steps. I hired them again to design and add landscape plantings to the front and back landscapes. Both times they did a fabulous job and always went the extra mile to make sure the work was done as I wanted. Recommend them without hesitation.

Tony at Artistic Landscapes just finished night lighting for our yard and it’s fabulous! He has such a good eye with his recommendations - so go with it! Love the different color hues.

Artistic Landscapes is the best (in our opinion) at seeing and executing the customers vision! Tony's vision and design for the patio was PERFECT! Tony communicated well, showed us a sample, and made sure we understood what the final install would look like. Their work was excellent.
